When trying to access a new PC on my workgroup network through windows
explorer, a small "Connect to" windows comes up with the user name blanked
out and not chngeable (with the username being the computer name followed by
a backslash and "Guest", like "HOME-PC\GUEST", not the actual name of the
user on the PC) and asking for a password. There is no password setup for
this PC. This problem seems to be random, as I can access another PC on the
same workgroup network without any problems. Guest account is disabled on
all 3 PCs in the workgroup, firewall settings have been setup for trusted
PCs. Sometimes the problem seems to resolve itself after a restart, but not
this time.
